Lil Wayne Dropped From Mountain Dew

Earlier this week, it was reported that the family of Emmett Till called for the Pepsi Co. to drop Lil Wayne from Mountain Dew over offensive lyrics about the civil rights icon, which caused the rapper to write an apology to the Till family, which they said wasn’t cutting it.

Haha. I know they believe it. Both got dropped from their endorsement deals due to their genius selves and have near fatal seizures (not funny but just sayin’). This is hip-hop today. Oh, not to mention each have named themselves either the new Pac or Biggie.

Please dont even say that as a joke. Even though pac and biggie were mainstream, they had their boundaries brtween pop music and rap music. they weren’t soft.

this kinda pisses me off, that family needs to get a life. It shoulda been over after he released the apology letter.

my thoughts exactly
them pushing the issue after the song was … whats the word… deleted I guess.
and the guy vowed to not only never say it again but to never even use the guys name proves my point that the motives behind this wasnt just an offensive lyric from an underwhelming rapper….
Seth Mcfarland better watch out for Abe Lincolns descendants for his oscar performance

WITH ARTISTRY COMES A SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY… SUCKS THAT NIGGAS GOTTA DO IT TO OTHER NIGGAS, BUT SOMETIMES NIGGAS GOTTA LEARN THE HARD WAY… THAT IS JUST THE TRUTH AND IT IS MANIFESTING ITSELF.
